Abstract: The review article aimed to gather information regarding the variety of leisure activities the Indian college students are involved in. Many research articles are found to be diversified towards different aspects of leisure activity like the importance of recreational time in life, energy and leisure time, racial differences among students regarding leisure activities, etc. Only fifteen research articles are dedicated to the variety of leisure activities among Indian college students. Only one article was found involving the tribal population. The range of duration of published articles is between 1999 and 2024. Eight databases were searched: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, Schematic Scholar, and Research Gate. Works involved college students of 18 to 25 years of age and from different North and South Indian colleges. Physical activity is found to be the most popular leisure activity among Indian college students followed by reading and spending quality time with family members. Only two studies have identified alcohol drinking to be the favorite leisure time activity.
